AMC’s new 30-second spot (via EW) features the main cast of characters travelling by land and sea, both of which provide a variety of dangers. Amid the flesh-eating threats, the core group of characters enter into a debate about how the zombie apocalypse began, with some believing that the virus outbreak could be a man made phenomenon, and others citing it as a natural outcome of the unsustainable world.
The promo video also shares a few ominous lines of dialogue amongst the action, though Victor Strand’s (Colman Domingo) “You know what the real danger is on the ocean?” he asks, “It’s people” may give insight to trouble ahead. This suggests that conflicts are surfacing amongst the survivors on board the luxury yacht, with Madison Clark (Kim Dickens) adding credence to that notion, as she is seen arguing that a single crew member cannot be responsible for deciding who lives and who dies.
My plan for the zombie apocalypse has always involved getting out to sea, finding a deserted island and setting up base camp there, so I will be watching this show with great interest.
